“Malala” by Fiona Beddal (2015, Scholastic)
Wow. Amazing. What an inspiration!
Quotes:
“Before she went to school, maybe for the last time, Malala talked to the camera. 'They can't stop me. I'm going to have an education, if it's at home, or school, or any place.'” (p17)
“'Malala Yousafzai must die.' Malala and her family read the Taliban's words on the Internet. … 'Some things are more important than our lives,' she told him. 'We can't stop now.'” (p21)
October the 9th .. 'Who is Malala?' (p22)
'One child, one teacher, one book and one pen can change the world.' (p31)
'You see only one girl in front of you. But I am not one girl … I am 66 million girls without an education. And today, I am not talking. Those 66 million girls are talking.' (p32)
'We children don't understand our leaders. Why can the 'strong' countries of the world easily bring war, but not peace? Why can they give guns, but not books? Why can they build bombs, but not schools?' (p32)
